July 2018- “We have the ability as an industry to change lives and open eyes, we have a responsibility to make a change.” - Alim Jayda. In this eye opening conversation, Nia meets & chats with Alim about the changes needed within the world of theatre, film and television that will enable both the deaf and sign language communities to be seen and represented in a more truthful and respectful way. As a Coda (child of deaf adults) Alim is shining a light on not only this issue, but the ripple effect that is felt both politically and socially.
